The original Grime Street is no more.
Well sort of........
I suppose like everyone else I'm never happy with some stuff so as the 'new' railway section on Grime St has really begun to take shape (3 road fiddle yard built on one board and a cantilevered one in progress for the other end) I decided that a revamp of the original board was due, so large blunt instruments were brought into play.....resulting in this mess....
I've decided to add in another loop and a better (more depth) side street on the original board, by doing so this means that there isn't very much of the original layout left, some of the baseboard and a couple of banks of buildings, but they're subject to change and addition.
At the same time I'm also adding a trailing crossover to introduce more operational flexibility especially when operating Grime St hooked upto Andy Burrows Florin St layout.
Progress has been fairly rapid with all timber work etc completed and half the track already built. So more to follow in due course.
I suppose it's fairly timely then that Grime Street makes its debut in BRM this month (April edition) Some great photos by Andy York that make it look better than it is!
Plus you get the dubious bonus of an interview with yours truly.....I was watching that through my fingers on first viewing but hopefully it's not too bad....
Buy one now whilst stocks last....I am not on commission honestly!
